"My co-leader and I have encouraged "our girls" to help others and the environment around them.  They all have volunteered in their community and one has even saved a life by using the Heimlich maneuver she learned in brownie girl scouts!  So, I encourage you to volunteer and make a difference in a girl's life – who knows, it may even make a difference in yours."
-Elizabeth
GSWNY Leader

You will love this job!

Without a doubt it will be, at times, both difficult and time consuming, but it will be, by far, one of the highlights of your life.

For not only do you help girls to discover the world around them, connect and make wonderful friendships, and take action to make the world a better place, but you have a "hand" in creating the true Leaders of tomorrow's world!

You think we are exaggerating?

Here are some facts:

66% of Women of Professional Achievement were Girl Scouts at some point in their youth (Defining Success:  American Women, Achievement, the Girl Scouts – GSRI/Louis Harris, 1999)

71.4% of women in the U. S. Senate and 67.1% of the women in the House of Representatives today are Girl Scout alumnae (Congressional Research Service, August 2005)

82% of high-achieving Girl Scout alumnae believe that membership in Girl Scouting and other youth organizations influenced their success (Louis Harris, 1999)

Join our team and help change the world!
